I have am using a Sound Blaster 32 PnP in FreeBSD ver. 2.2.1and it doesn't play midis. I can play mods and stuff (s3mod), but midis are noiseless. The program (playmidi) will start, and even display the graphic 'notes' for the song, but no sound comes out. I believe there is a problem with the PnP (yuk!) initialation. The non-PnP OS initialation program is a DOS binary, so I have no way to initialize the card in FreeBSD. Has anyone ever dealt with this kind of thing before? I'd appreciate any information anyone can give me. Thanks! -- -- Chris Brunner | -- cjb@efn.org | -- Life's too short to use a slow modem |
